NEVADA – With smoke in the Truckee Meadows, parents and students are wondering about canceling school and sports in Washoe County.

The Washoe County School District’s policy requires air quality exceeding 300 and a forecast predicting conditions staying the same or worse.

WCSD stated asthmatic kids and adults should follow their action plan and keep medicine ready.
